Adam Henrique is set to join the action. Roope Hintz might be doing the same.

Henrique will return to the lineup Thursday when his Edmonton Oilers take on the Dallas Stars in Game 3 of the Western Conference final, head coach Kris Knoblauch said.

Dallas counterpart Pete DeBoer added Hintz is a game-time decision.

The Oilers and Stars are tied 1-1 in the best-of-seven series after Dallas picked up a 3-1 home victory Saturday. Edmonton took the opener 3-2 in double overtime.

Henrique suffered a suspected ankle injury in Game 5 of the first round against the Los Angeles Kings before briefly returning for Game 2 against the Vancouver Canucks.

B次元官网网址淚tB次元官网网址檚 more nerve-racking watching than playing,B次元官网网址� the 34-year-old centre said Thursday morning. B次元官网网址淏ut watching the guys, seeing everybody come together and push through and battle, it was certainly great to watch, and see the team continue to get better.

Acquired from the Anaheim Ducks ahead of the NHL trade deadline, Henrique has a goal and an assist in six playoff appearances this spring. Projected to play on a line with Warren Foegele and Derek Ryan, he combined to score 24 goals and 51 points in the regular season.

Oilers forward Ryan McLeod will be a healthy scratch.

Hintz, the StarsB次元官网网址� No. 1 centre, hasnB次元官网网址檛 played since suffering an upper-body injury in Game 4 of the second round against the Colorado Avalanche.

The 27-year-old, who took part in an optional morning skate Thursday, has two goals and four assists in 11 playoff games. He put up 30 goals and 65 points in 80 regular-season contests.

McLeod comes out of EdmontonB次元官网网址檚 lineup without a point in 14 playoff games.

The 24-year-old has been part of an OilersB次元官网网址� penalty kill that has gone 20 straight short-handed opportunities without giving up a goal.

Knoblauch compared McLeod taking a seat to the B次元官网网址渞esetB次元官网网址� the team gave goaltender Stuart Skinner in Games 4 and 5 of the Vancouver series.
